Mais particularmente, a invenção se refere a um aparelho para detectar riscos dentários e bucais como gengivite, cáries e câncer bucal.[001] The present invention relates to the field of oral and dental health. More particularly, the invention relates to an apparatus for detecting dental and oral risks such as gingivitis, cavities and oral cancer.

ANTECEDENTES DA INVENÇÃOBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[002] A detecção precoce de doenças e riscos à saúde permite que médicos tratem e previnam eficientemente danos graves à saúde de um paciente. Esse princípio também se aplica ao campo de doenças e riscos bucais (isto é, relacionadas à boca) e dentários (isto é, relacionados aos dentes).[002] Early detection of diseases and health risks allows doctors to efficiently treat and prevent serious damage to a patient's health. This principle also applies to the field of oral (ie, related to the mouth) and dental (ie, related to the teeth) diseases and risks.

[003] Tipicamente, um indivíduo não está ciente da formação de doenças e riscos no interior da boca, especialmente, em estágios que são considerados no início de desenvolvimento dos mesmos. Riscos bucais são comumente descobertos quando a dor ou anomalias bucais ocorrem, caso em que a detecção não é precoce, ou durante uma visita ao dentista que também pode ser tarde demais.[003] Typically, an individual is not aware of the formation of diseases and risks inside the mouth, especially at stages that are considered at the beginning of their development. Oral risks are commonly discovered when oral pain or anomalies occur, in which case the detection is not early, or during a visit to the dentist who may also be too late.

[004] Portanto, um objetivo da presente invenção consiste em fornecer uma aparelho para detecção precoce de riscos bucais e dentários que pode ser usada por um usuário doméstico sem qualquer conhecimento ou conhecimento técnico no campo.[004] Therefore, an objective of the present invention is to provide an apparatus for early detection of oral and dental risks that can be used by a home user without any knowledge or technical knowledge in the field.

Germes reagem a uma luz em um comprimento de onda específico, assim, os mesmos podem ser detectados por exposição a tal luz, capturando uma ou mais imagens dos mesmos e processando as uma ou mais imagens. Adicionalmente, cáries no estágio inicial compreendem um formato, tamanho e cor únicos em comparação à superfície de dente (esmalte dentário). O processamento de imagem de tais imagens pode permitir detecção precoce de cáries. Além disso, feridas de câncer bucal no estágio inicial têm formatos e cor únicos em comparação a gengivas ou língua nas quais são formadas. Mais uma vez, o processamento de imagem pode ser utilizado para detecção precoce de câncer bucal.[027] Various oral and dental anomalies can be detected visually. For example, biological cells (especially proteins) can be detected using the fluorescence effect. Germs react to a light at a specific wavelength, so they can be detected by exposure to that light, capturing one or more images of them and processing the one or more images. Additionally, early-stage cavities comprise a unique shape, size and color compared to the tooth surface (tooth enamel). Image processing of such images may allow early detection of cavities. In addition, early stage oral cancer wounds have unique shapes and colors compared to the gums or tongue on which they are formed. Once again, image processing can be used for early detection of oral cancer.
